Rom.12.5

So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.

Rom.12.5

The body we're talking about is Christ's body of chosen people. Each of us finds our meaning and function as a part of his body. But as a chopped-off finger or cut-off toe we wouldn't amount to much, would we? So since we find ourselves fashioned into all these excellently formed and marvelously functioning parts in Christ's body,

Rom.12.5

so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.

Rom.12.5

so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.

Rom.12.5

so it is with Christ's body. We are all parts of his one body, and each of us has different work to do. And since we are all one body in Christ, we belong to each other, and each of us needs all the others.
